The Milwaukee Sentinel warns the
people against investing money in the
wildcat mining stocks of the Gogebic
range set afloat by speculative compan.
les who have no defined mines or ore
within the reach of human vision.
Those who wish to invest on the range,
can find real mines, owned by legiti-
mate companies, with ore in sight,
where safe investments can be made.

GO VERY SLOW.
a ASelf-Protecting View of the Butte Bridge
Building Sclle me.

The scheme which was started in Butte
some time ago to build bridges in the Big
Hole country that Butte merchants and
business men might be enabled to capture
the growing trade of the northern portion
Of Beavcrhead County and thereby lay the
foundation for cutting off portion Of this
county and annexing it to little Silver Bow
has assumed definite shape. 1t is a nice
laid scheme and should be nipped while
it is budding aud before it blooms.
Our County Commissioners have tum.
bled to the Butte scheme in SO far rs to en-
ter.ain the bridge building enterprise in the
vicinity OF Dcweys Flat. On last Friday
Commissioners Oliver and Johnson went
up to the Flat, where they met Commits
sioners Young and Schmidt, Of Silver Bow
county, and held joint Commissioners
conference relating TO the building Of two
| new bridges. The conference eliminated
only in an agreement to advertise for seal.
cd proposals at Butte-not at Dillon. The
two counties have acted remains at pres.
ent in that shape.
The TRlBUN'' does not want to be un.
derstood as objecting to the people living
in the neighborhood Of Dewey's Flat hav-
ing ample bridge facilities provided, but If
bridges are to be erected at the county's
expense they should be put in at points
where they would be beneficial to and &C.
commodate the greatest number Of the
citizens Of this county and particularly the
people Of the upper Big Hole Basin. Our
Commissioners, serving the people Of their
county and not the merchants Of Butte.
should examine the feasibility and advisa.
bility of erecting bridges across the Big
Hole R;verin the Basin at say, Al. Noyes'
and further down the river at some conve.
nient point accessible to the greatest num-
Der Of the settlers and Of use to the travel.
ing public. Then, by keeping the road and
bridges on the Grasshoppcr route in good
condition, the Basin people could come to
Dillon, the county seat, to transact their
business without taking chances Of being
drowned in the Dcwey's Flat section in
the season when the roaring Big Hole is
overlooking its banks in a narrow canyon.
This should receive the careful and consid.
crate attention Of our Commissioners be.
fore final action is taken in the premises.
: Our Commissioners should go very slow
in indorsing the Butte scheme for building
Big Hole bridges.

Tanning Lions With Electricity.

Tanning Lions With Electricity.

lion tanners which consists Of an ap-
paratus Of great power, shaped like q
stick, about three feet and half in

The most astonishing effects, how
ever, were perceptible in the boa con-

the specimen from Cayenne, nearly

From. the Ns orlk Times
The frenaen who trained the horses

theory that horses reason from causs.
to effect. OF one horse in particular
which is now in active service, many
anecdotes are current, as shoWing3his
great intelligence and ability to mas
ter questions for himself. The foalow.
ing story was told by one Of the as.
sistant engineers at the Ere on Broad.
way:
Jim, /" he said, pointing TO apower
full black horse who was paving and
snorting in time with the puffs from
the engine, sswas a difficult horse to
train. He was slow at learning to
leave the stall and make a rush for
the pole as soon as the gong sounded.
We tried him in various ways, and
finally made him one OF the quickest
horses in the service by simply feeding
him an apple as soon as he had taken
his place at the pole. This plan
worked admirably, but the depart
ment didn't supply unlimited apples,
SO when we thought him fully trained
the customary apple was omitted.
What did Jim do then but quietly re-
main in his stall Whenst the alarm rang
out. The apple business was resorted
to again, and he was as spy as before.
Then again the apple was dispensed
with, and jim did notbudge, but look.
ed at the men calmly, and II a horse
can wink, think any one could see
the merry twinkle in his eye and im-
agine him saying. No apple, no
move
He was too strong and too valu.
able to lose, so the foreman riggged up
an automatic whip, which was released
at the first tap Of the gong, and came
down with a sharp thwack across
Jim's quarters. For two or three
days this answered every expectation,
but it was then noticed that whenJim
backed into the stall he furtively
looked behind him, and after a cogi-
tation with himself he squeezed his
body close up to the side of the stall,
so that the lash came harmlessly
down by his side. This was not only
once, but every time he was put in his
stall, and it was clear he had beaten
the men, Well, then another plan
was adopted. The whip or lash was
strung along the side Of the stall, and
when the gong sounded out it sprang,
hitting Jim a smart clip on the side.
This brought him out on a run for two
or three days, when again he got the
best OF US. When he was backed in he
would just plant his body firmly
against the side OF the stall, and the
gong might sound for week and the
lash never touch him, as he held it
tight against the boards We then
tried third and last plan Of having
half a dozen lashes working from the
gong, SO that however he may place
himself some Of them are sure to hit
him. This has succeeded so far, but
Jim has evidently been thinking out a
plan to get the best of this, and am
not sure he will not succeed.
During the narrative Jim stood qui-
city as if listening, and when the en-
gineer, walking by him, gave him a
friendly pat. he neighed out a whinny
Of satisfaction, acting as if he had un-
derstood every word.
